    I have servos with 19mm shaft and i want to retrofit a lathe (1.6m between centers) .
    I want a pair of timing pulleys with 1:3 reduction for Z axis and a pair of timing pulleys with 2:3 reduction for X axis.
    What kind timing pulleys/belts will be best for that application that they have NO backlash and good quality/performance ?

    Also all car engines have inside timing pulleys ( What Is a Timing Belt ? - AutoZone Car Care - YouTube )
    So you can extract for free timing pulleys from old broken car engines if you go at car repair shop and search at scrap engines.
    I have extracted some timing pulleys from broken engines but i don't know the type of pulleys to order matched timing belts.
    Where can i find a chart with specs with all types of pulleys to identify that i have extracted from car engines ?

    I'm very lucky in that my local bearing and seal supplier also do toothed pulleys and belts, it was there that I saw the steel wire reinforced belts, they have them in stock in stock too.
    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D
